I haven't entered anything for a while as you may have noticed. It has been a difficult time. I have been warned about the depression that may come at times, and it does. Just as you start to feel a bit better, the pain comes back with vengeance. I keep taking my pain meds, but I am trying to cut back to start to wean myself off of them. As soon as I think things are going fine, I get bombarded with enormous amounts of pain from every direction of the legs and I don't know what to do to calm it down. It gets pretty frustrating.
I fought off the pain today as best I could and was determined to go on a road trip. Peter and I went to my parents to have lunch and had fun as you can see. My Dad is a panic and my mom, well she's the best Mom you can have. We had a nice lunch and went right home. I made it up the stairs once again and that whole ordeal knocked me out. I'm glad I did it, since sitting at home with pain isn't making it any better.
Everyone keeps telling me I'm on the verge of the big turn in healing and I will all of a sudden feel so much better. I can't tell you how ready I am for that!!!!
Hugs to all,
Nanc
